  1. Supply chain management (SCM)– (logistics) this is talking about how a product is gotten to the customer in a fast and efficient way. Delivery companies have made this much easier and efficient for many businesses. (outsourcing)

  2. SCM involves: • Stock control – movement and storage of the level of stock to the optimal level. • Quality control – make sure all levels of a supply chain care about quality • Supplier Networks – coordination and collaboration are necessary to ensure that the business and suppliers have a good relationship ensuring quality as well as logistics. • Distribution finally to the consumers in a timely and reliable manner especially if the goods are perishable.

  3. Reasons for supply chain management • Long supply chains give more chances for things to go wrong. (shorter the better) • Appropriate stock levels are kept too little and delays happen or shortage to meet demand. Too much and storage problems as well as working capital problems • Leaner production is easier if the supply chain is well in tact • All the members in a supply chain are dependent on each other if one fails such as a distributer then all the rest are affected in the chain (picture)
